The Street Style At Milan Fashion Week Is A Feast For The Eyes

Between the mouthwatering homemade pasta and picturesque Sistine Chapel, it’s no wonder Italy is a tourist magnet. But these aren’t the only reasons folks are drawn to the country, at least not for fashion girls. Twice a year, Milan welcomes locals and style enthusiasts around the world for its fashion week, where legendary labels like Prada, Bottega Veneta, and Versace show. And now that the Fall/Winter 2024 festivities have begun, the city is exploding with impeccable street style looks, too.

On the third stop of the fashion month tour, attendees are especially loyal to the houses presenting, meaning they often turn up to the designers’ shows wearing its latest silhouettes from head to toe. At Diesel, for example, many guests showed their support by opting for the Italian brand’s cool, edgy looks, including its viral 1DR bags, unique belt miniskirts, and super-distressed dresses. Then, later in the day, fashion girls darted over to the Fendi show dressed in the brand’s colorblock outerwear and knits, and tailored separates, many carrying the timeless Peekaboo bag.

Day 4

This guest made a furry statement jacket the focal point off her otherwise sporty outfit.

Calling all minimalists: Try doubling down on olive green (the hue is basically a neutral).

Influencer Emili Sindlev’s pastel, cotton candy-like look was equal parts sweet and sophisticated.

Influencer Bettina Looney’s glossy red bag added the perfect splash of color to her neutral fur-trimmed set.

WARDROBE.NYC Founder Christine Centenera wore a silky black look to the Ferragamo show.

The sweater-as-scarf trend is picking up steam this fashion month.

Day 3

We had a feeling the no-pants look would be prominent again this season, and this approach to the trend is perfect for the chilly weather.

Though burnt orange is synonymous with fall, the deep shade looks great in the winter alongside red.

The skirt-over-pants look is gaining momentum — and influencer Veronica Ferraro is here for it.

Business in the front, party in the back.

Don’t want to wait another month or two to pull out your Bermuda shorts? According to Vogue China’s Editor-In-Chief Margaret Zhang, they work in the winter with a knee-high boot.

Break up an all-gray outfit (aka, a groufit) with a rich hue, such as red.

Influencer Gala Gonzalez’s lime green sequin top and relaxed jeans from Sabato De Sarno’s debut collection with Gucci is pure fun.

Day 2

With pastel pieces galore, the scene outside the Prada show was almost like walking around a real-life Candy Land. Sindlev joined in on the look, opting for a soft pink cardigan atop a powder blue pullover.

Influencer Vanessa Hong’s distressed leather miniskirt infused her otherwise simple outfit with texture.

Stylist and fashion editor Gabriella Karefa-Johnson went with a practical (but statement-making) sage green trench for the rainy day.

Prada’s gauzy dress from its Spring/Summer 2024 collection looks magnificent blowing in the wind.

Sheer trousers? Looks like Prada is about to make them a thing.

All hail the humble varsity jacket. This style looks extra cool against the sculptural bag and denim maxi skirt.

In all light tan, influencer Tamu McPherson provided a crash course in monochromatic dressing.

BRB, I’m running to find a pair of similar-looking square-toe red boots.

Day 1

Here’s photographic proof that statement belt is a solid solution for upgrading your tee and jeans combo.

Make your leg-baring miniskirt apt for the cold weather with the help of a leather trench, like this colorblock style from Fendi.

Recreate this all-leather look when you don’t know what to wear between seasons.

If you start noticing distressed dresses having a moment, blame it on the crowd outside the Diesel show.

These street style stars coordinated their olive green Diesel looks to see the brand’s latest collection (and nailed it, we might add).

Structured bags have been taking a back seat in favor of soft, slouchy silhouettes this season, and this guest picked just the right one to contrast her maxi coat.

Since winter is almost over, get the most out of your cold-weather pieces while you can. Perhaps you might take cues from this guest, who pulled out a fur-trimmed cardigan for the shows.

If you’re ready to start dressing for spring, go for a coat and boots in a fresh powder blue shade.

A baseball hat and furry slides is a duo we never knew we needed to try — until now.
